Hi All,

TurboExcel isn't directly AGI related, but I find it fascinating that someone figured out how to compile a spreadsheet into portable C++. Although, this technology could have an impact on using the spreadsheet metaphor to prototype or even write AGI subsystems; it has the additional benefit of forcing the programmer to focus more on data structures than on procedures.

It's fascinating that the most widely used programming platform in the world (yes, Excel could be described in this way!) now has a direct path to fast execution, portability and embedability.

Some might consider TurboExcel to be AI in a very narrow sense; it certainly has the same effect an 'AI computer programmer' might have in a narrow field -- it has the potential to eliminate the need for thousands of programmers worldwide who's job it is to convert business logic found in analysts' and executives' Excel spreadsheets into systems code.
